Sweet Potatoes are highly nutritious and so versatile.
They’re a tasty addition in just about anything
from stews, soups, as fries, grilled with other vegetables to go in wraps,
and baked goods like sweet potato pie, oh my!!
I am very sensitive to nightshade vegetables like white potatoes for instance, but sweet potatoes are actually not considered a nightshade and therefore pose no problems for anyone who is night shade sensitive. This makes me happy because they are sooo yummy 🙂
They are an excellent source of vitamin A (Beta-carotene) and are high in vitamin B6 and a good source of vitamin C, potassium and magnesium too.
Another wonderful thing for people needing to watch their blood sugars or sugar intake is that sweet potatoes do not cause the blood sugar spikes that contribute to fatigue and weight gain . Their natural sugars are released slowly into the bloodstream making sure you get a balanced and regular source of energy.
This delicious breakfast bake is sure to be a real palate pleaser. The sweet potato crust goes so well here in this recipe. So here’s to a great way to start your morning.
Bon Appetit!!!
